The practices specifically prohibited by the edict were physical paddling, tubbing, exposure, deprivation of sleep—below a daily minimum of seven hours—any kind of rough handling, and dictating orders to pledges by other than properly designated fraternity officials.
It was further ordered that, as a substitute for the officially abolished "Hell Week,” the fraternities substitute a 'probationary week” during which period the pledges will do constructive work in and about the fraternity house after school hours.
Merit System Suggested
Also recommended by the president was a point or merit sys-te mto serve as a basis for penalizing pledges who fail to perform officially assigned tasks—this to be established by the Interfraternity council for universal adoption and enforcement by all fraternity chapters on the campus.
Other orders from Dr. von KleinSmid were:
That any other forms of physical punishment or hazing (in addition to those named above) that might involve even the slightest hazard to physical or mental health, are prohibited, as being indefensible in a college institution.
